Super Sentai/Awesome: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

* ''[[Dai Sentai Goggle Five]]''. Episode 39 could probably be summed up as ''"How to be an awesome [[Badass in Distress]], courtesy of [[The Chick|Miki]]"''. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWphsG4zySc You can witness it here]

 

** Banba Soukichi/Big One (Miyauchi Hiroshi) stole the show. Especially when Banba finally makes his appearance, tossing off his guise as an old, wise priest as effortlessly as a hat, introduces himself in the most confident way possible, then beats down the powered-up Orgs and blowing them into the bay ''without'' transforming.

** Amamiya Yuusuke/Red Falcon also gets his own moment of awesome, when he ignores a gaggle of Orgs for part of a scene, then explode in rage when their leader puts his foot on the nearby grave of his fallen friend. He then ''trains'' Gao Yellow.

** The absolute crowning moment of awesome would have to be the mecha fight. After the Gaorangers scramble in their own mecha - and get beaten - mecha from ''every past series'' come out of nowhere (apparently lead by Advisor Miura from Ohranger and Shinmei Akira/Aoranger from Goranger - both also played by Miyauchi Hiroshi) and bomb the living crap out of the [[Big Bad]]. All to a rousing BGM from Fiveman.

** Not to be outdone, all of the clips/remembrances are set to older Sentai music. If you know the genre, this is ''as'' awesome as it sounds.

** Then, the following episode, effectively telling his team to screw off and solve their own problems when they started to rely on him to bail them out of the tiniest skirmishes.

** Perhaps his Crowningest [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] is in the [[Crossover]] special Magiranger vs. Dekaranger, when he fights [[The Dragon]] Wolzard to a standstill and only loses because he can't teleport off. The Island explodes, and he's ''fine''.

** Then there's Ban's Moment, when he actually tracked down and ''physically harassed the SPD Supreme Commander'' for information regarding the whereabouts of his Red Ranger predecessor after a criminal from the guy's past comes back for another go-around. What makes it even sweeter is not only does Ban ''not'' get in trouble for his actions, but his predecessor was so impressed by them, ''he petitioned and was granted Ban's transfer to a special all-Red Ranger team he was creating''. Now that's ''hardcore''.

** Ban also got a first-episode [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] with his gun-fu skills.

 

* Task 24 has one, with Natsuki ([[Bouken Yellow]]) squashing and blasting a bunch of resurrected mooks with first [[Dai Bouken]], then Ultimate [[Dai Bouken]].(This also qualifies as a [[Funny Moment]], as the other Boukenger were in the line-of-fire... and Natsuki doesn't notice)

* Pretty much the entire second half of Task 28, as the Boukengers put their mecha's arm swapping system to good use.

* In the penultimate episode, the rangers can't transform. Masumi appears with that series' BFG, which they usually can only use while transformed WITH a super mode attachment. They then proceed to fire it ''three times'' into a powered-up monster, the first time sending Masumi flying, the second skidding the group back into a wall, and the third severly damaging said wall. Eiji's reaction in the aftermath to this speaks for itself. Kudos to the actors here.

 

* [[Evil Overlord|Rio]] has more than one Crowning Moment of Awesome where he proves that [[My Kung Fu Is Stronger Than Yours|his Juken is stronger than theirs]] by pummeling the Rangers flat, then lets them go because they are [[Not Worth Killing|not yet worthy of being killed by him]]. This is, of course, exactly what you're not supposed to do...

** "A tiger could never beat a lion." "A tiger...WILL NOT LOSE!!!" * explodes with Kageki* * fizzles out like a wasted candle*

* Everyone has an incredible one in the second-to-last episode. The show's [[Big Bad]] and his right hand man are pummelling the heroes and Rio/Mele. Right when things are looking bleakest, Rio and Jan (Geki Red) deliver an awesome speech that turns everything around. Cue [[Crowning Music of Awesome]] set to the most awesome team fight this troper has seen in years of watching Super Sentai.

 

* There are so many CMoAs that it got it's own [[Samurai Sentai Shinkenger/Awesome|CMoA List]]

 

* Who says bad guys can't get 'em? When an imprisoned Damaras is offered a second chance after failing to prevent Oiles Gil's death, he easily breaks his bonds and the cell door. It's at this point you realize that he could have just walked out ''whenever'' he chose, but was punishing ''himself'' for his failure<ref>And it wasn't even his failure. Oiles Gil, tired of being seen as the true leader's idiot son, ''ordered'' Damaras to stay behind.</ref> because he really was that loyal. (''Then'' he goes and shows how powerful he is, completely mauling the Gokaigers, but ''that'' scene just [[Fridge Logic|makes you say]] "And he's never done this before now ''why'', again?" You ''expect'' [[The Dragon]] to be pretty strong, but it's his loyalty that makes you say "you know, he's pretty awesome.")
